protest

Iran is witnessing an unusual protest, the “happiness campaign,” centred around a folk song that began when a 70-year-old man danced at a fish market. The video went viral, sparking a public outcry after the government arrested the people in the video. The public backlash evolved into a national protest, with people filming themselves dancing to the song to express their discontent. The campaign is seen as a symbol of resistance against government oppression.
